Forecasts

Verdict

It'll be a major surprise if FEDERAL has reached his limit after 4 starts so he's taken to overcome a 4 lb rise for his win at the Curragh now switching to AW for the first time. His new stablemate Yerwanthere is a potentially dangerous opponent on the back of a winning debut at the Leopardstown in June, with confidence in her chance increased should the betting vibes be strong. Pierre Lapin did too much too soon when behind Howyoulikethat over C&D last time and may prove best of the rest.

  1. FEDERAL (IRE)
  2. YERWANTHERE (IRE)
  3. PIERRE LAPIN (IRE)
